Giant Semi Scale Model: Built to a scale of 1: 2.8, our exciting giant-scale Bellanca Decathlon will be the favorite tow-plane for large scale sailplanes. Powered by a 100 to 120cc gasoline ignition engine, its colorful scale appearance, impressive large size, aerobatic performance and realistic flying characteristics will make it the star attraction at any airfield, whether towing gliders or just flying for fun! Its scale operating flaps allow excellent low-speed control for short take-offs and landings under small airfield conditions, and add an additional safety factor to glider towing. Note: Our 6.77 cu.in. DLE-111 opposed-twin fits very nicely under the cowling!

Construction: The Flight-8 Bellanca is an ARF (Almost Ready to Fly) aircraft, built using highly accurate CNC machining techniques and top-quality materials, including balsa, plywood, aluminum and a complete accessory package, including a rugged fiberglass cowling, scale wheel pants, all engineered to withstand the rigors of many flying seasons. The wings, fuselage and tail surfaces are of built-up construction (no foam cores) and covered with Ultracote, the very best polyester covering film, made in Germany. An Ultracote finish guarantees long-term durability, easy cleaning and realistic good looks.

The perfect advertising media:
The whole aircraft can serve as your “business card” or to promote your products. On all orders of 35 or more, a four-color finish of your own design can be applied, i.e. lettering, company logo, or advertising message. Many variations are available! Your specific inquiries are welcome! sales@flight-8.com
